would it made any difference to mitt romney if his running mate was chris christi? >> i don't think so. the reason he lost is there was this surprise enormous vote from elderly black women. they want to keep obama in the white house, first african american president. so they won't change their vote. they are still coming out. the other was a deficit of working class white males in the upper midwest, the places hit but the auto bailout. i don't think it makes a difference christie is on the bailout. i think they are both great reporters -- >> the game change was not really contested. they obviously got good sources. >> which reminds me of another reason i don't think they were considering hillary clinton. among the things bill clinton said about obama when hilary was running against them was teddy kennedy, about barack obama a few years ago this guy would have been getting us coffee. >> really? >> yeah, it's in my book. >> does that mean it's true? >> it's in their book, it's from "game change". >> let me talk about obama and clinton, they don't like each other and t

it's sort of interesting that mitt romney is back to defending romney care which he was running away from readily during the campaign. but, of course, if you have everybody pulling in the same direction, things work out a lot better. it's no coincidence that the states that are having the most problem with obama care are those with the republican governors who are refuse to go participate and dumping everybody on to the federally run program, which is not going as well. >> it's interesting to know, this is the very same stage back in 2006 when mitt romney was joined by a beaming ted kennedy. it was obviously visible, the bipartisan support. but dana, there were some differences that mitt romney alluded to in his statement, beyond just the bipartisan support. i mean, they did ease out the health care law there, and it was much smaller group of people that had to sign up for the exchanges. how do you think president obama will parallel that? i know we talked to kristen about this earlier. how do you think he will play with the mitt romney version of the health care plan, standing on th
